The move reflects the market shift, where both residential and commercial projects are led as much by cost and availability as they are by preference and design. By bringing aluminium and uPVC into a single supply model, AluFold is mitigating the added time, stress and logistics installers face when forced to work with multiple suppliers as projects take shape.

Backed by Leicester-based Unique Window Systems and its close partnership with Eurocell, AluFold’s introduction of uPVC extends the same structured, supply-only approach already in place for aluminium.

A complete uPVC production facility has been built within AluFold Windows’ 70,000 sq ft factory at Whitebirk Industrial Estate in Blackburn, featuring advanced machinery including a BDM cutting and machining centre capable of processing up to 800 windows per week.

The new line is further supported by multiple quad welders, CNC corner cleaners and CNC beading equipment to ensure consistent quality throughout production, with AluFold’s expert operating team now fully trained to work across both uPVC and aluminium.

“Aluminium will always be at the core of AluFold Windows,” says Managing Director, Neal Addison. “This isn’t about changing what we do. It is about recognising how our customers are working day-to-day and making sure we’re set up to support that properly.”

Karl Williams, who has led the integration of uPVC into AluFold since he joined the business in February, brings 20 years of hands-on experience across production, operations and quality control, having worked in multiple large-scale fabrication environments across the North West.

“I’ve had the opportunity to build uPVC into AluFold from the outset – the setup, the backing and the way the business is structured,” explains Karl. “It’s that solid base that gives our customers the confidence to price, plan and move projects forward without second guessing supply, which is the biggest support we can give them in today’s market.”

Operating from its Lancashire base, AluFold Windows continues to focus on structured, supply-only fabrication – now supporting trade partners across both aluminium and uPVC.
